Flyon twin tail lights fitting

[Mike5705]

Hi has anyone fitted the twin tail lights to their flyon yet?
Its supposed to be pre wired but i am a bit reluctant to prise off the blank plates in case they are attached to something. Thanks

Or do you remove these side covers to access the tiny securing bolt?

I just presumed it came with lights ...

Most models don’t, and the Haibike lights are not cheap

Hi thanks for that.The picture shows a securing bolt..Mine doesn't seem to have any threads on it, i just thought it was a positioning guide.

 

[Jackware]

I can't see what else would stop it falling off? Presumably the current blanking pieces are held in the same way and the bolt will cut it's thread?

I’ve fitted these to mine, yep the wires are in the frame ready to connect. They are secured with a small alan bolt. Very fiddly to get the bolt in! I ended up cutting a alan key down so that the short leg was very short.

Did you have to take off the plate in the first picture that the arrow points to.. and if you did does anything fall out. Thanks

Yes you need to remove those plates to access the bolts and cables. Nothing falls out when you remove them.

Good work (and photos)

 

[arawa]

Thanks. Very useful. Did you fit a front light?

 

[Mike5705]

Just started having a look..cant find connector at the moment

Just a tip!

 

[Mike5705]

Luckily i didn't get any bolts with the lights..Have you fitted a front light yet?

Have tried but I can't find any connector in frame.

 

[Mike5705]

I didn't either.. it has been mentioned it is in the display, I am just a bit reluctant to take it apart until i have seen a picture

 

[Cobra]

Not the right connectors in display, guess it should be connected above motor but then you’ll need an exstension cord!

I have located the connector for the Skybeamer!
The connector works as a loop when Skybeamer isn't fitted and you need to pull the cabel out of the frame and unplug connector.
It's covered in a fabric sleeve ziptied. Cut ziptie on one side and see if connectors match with Skybeamer. If you cut wrong ziptie you will see the connector for the display and it has a round connector.

Cabel 2 and 5 are connected in a loop, when you disconnect only one will fit Skybeamer connector. The female connector will be unused!

Thanks, i have had a look at those connectors but i was looking for a spare slot. Is everything else working ok? just seems odd to have it connected in a loop

Yeah the loop got me confused to but now everything works just fine!
